I was never "under review" at Columbia. Went straight from "application complete" to getting an acceptance via email. I'd have to imagine that the rest of their decisions would be out this week or next week at the latest? Transfer orientation is August 8 and OCI starts August 12 I believe. Though someone at the career office did mention something about a rolling bidding deadline depending on when you were admitted as a transfer.. so maybe that means there is another wave of admits still to come?

I have no idea. I accepted as soon as I was offered a seat via the phone, and I have yet to receive the package (although I was told it would arrive today). I also talked to someone with reason to know today who said that Stanford still has more acceptances to give out, and that I was just in the first wave. I don't want to spread false hope, but the person I talked to seemed pretty confident about it (and said it was based on information from this morning).
